| Title | Dandelion Supernova remix, by Michael Sussna |
| Artist | Sussna, Michael |
| Description | Fractal digital imagery is a relatively young yet already rich field. Though different from traditional art, this digital medium also demands a well-developed aesthetic sense. Mastery of an ever-evolving tool set permits results perfecting form, color, texture, and composition. Dandelion Supernova remix is a custom coloring of an older sepia image, Dandelion Supernova, which was created from Ultra Fractal formulas. This is more of an art than a science with fractal images. |
| Medium | Digital print on canvas, 24" x 30" |
| About the Artist | Michael has a Ph.D. in Computer Science and Cognitive Science from the University of California, San Diego. Michael began developing software in 1973 and creating fractal art in 1985. Michael is also a published poet and has done original theoretical work in number theory, multi-valued logic, physical chemistry, semantics-based information retrieval, and the statistical analysis of baseball. Michael explores undiscovered worlds of exotic scenery filled with exquisite shapes in colorful profusion. This journey into the wilds of magical fractal imagery is made possible by and is a reflection of the beauty of mathematics. These intricate designs serve as snapshots capturing panoramas from the limitless uncharted realms of inner space and often feature spirals speaking spiritually to us of infinity. Michael calls his geometric yet organic results "photoreal abstracts." |
